According to the 2017 FRC Software Component Overview
“The Outline Viewer is a utility used to view, modify and add to the contents of the Network Tables for debugging purposes.”
I am able to open the network table viewer (in client mode) and I can view variables but cannot find a way to modify them. Any documentation for the Outline Viewer would be greatly appreciated.
Double clicking a variable in outline viewer should allow you to modify it.
I tried that. When I change any value, it reverts back to the original value. Also, my outline viewer doesn’t look like your outline viewer. I am using this 2017 toolchain. Do I need to find a newer version?

What are you trying to modify? CameraServer camera property values are read only over network tables because of potential race conditions, so changing any of those will automatically revert to their old values.
Also, the differences is look are between Mac OS X and Windows using different ways of drawing. You have the newest version.
I was trying to modify the Property variables. I see I can modify RawPropertyInfo and PropertyInfo valuse. What do these Info properties do?
They are the properties of the specific camera. They’re read only for now because of synchronization. If you want to modify them, log into the stream using a web browser

On there, you will see sliders where you can actually modify those properties. At some point we plan to reenable them over NetworkTables but for now you have to either modify them over the webpage or using code.
